Bobby Jean

[Verse 1]

I came by your house the other day

Your mama said that you went away

She said there was nothing that I could have done

There was nothing nobody could say

You and me, we've known each other

Yeah, ever since we were sixteen

I wished I would have known, I wished I could have called you

Just to say "Goodbye, Bobby Jean"

[Verse 2]

Now you hung with me when all the others

Turned away, turned up their nose

We liked the same music, we liked the same bands

We liked the same clothes

Yeah we told each other that we were the wildest

The wildest things we'd ever seen

Now I wished you would have told me, I wished I could have talked to you

Just to say "Goodbye, Bobby Jean"

[Bridge]

We went walking in the rain

Talking 'bout the pain from the world we hid

Ain't nobody, nowhere, nohow

Ever gonna understand me the way you did

[Verse 3]

Well maybe you'll be out there on that road somewhere

In some bus or train traveling along

In some motel room there'll be a radio playing

And you'll hear me sing this song

If you do, know I'm thinking of you

And all the miles in between

I just calling one last time, not to change your mind

But to say "I miss you baby

"Yeah good luck, goodbye, Bobby Jean"
